Sevilla midfielder Rakitic: Barcelona draw was special

Sevilla midfielder Ivan Rakitic was pleased with their 1-1 draw at Barcelona.

While it was an empty Nou Camp, Rakitic says facing his former club was still special.

The Croatian took to Twitter to post about the match, in which he played 77 minutes, with 26 completed passes from 31 attempts.

"Very special game," noted Rakitic. "What a pleasure to play again in the Camp Nou. Great job team! Keep fighting!"

With Barca, he stayed for six years, won 16 trophies and played 310 games.
